Introduction: A large part of South Lebanon was occupied by Israeli forces for over Twenty-two years. On May 24, 2000, the Lebanese Resistance defeated the Israeli occupation, and a large part of South Lebanon was liberated. Shebaa Farms, a Lebanese land was occupied by Israel in 1967, is still under Israeli control. Israel said the land is Syrian. The Syrian officially declared Shebaa Farms as Lebanese. And the Lebanese said the land is Lebanese and demanding Israel to withdraw. Today, Israel is still occupying "Shebaa Farms" in South Lebanon.
